The Anahir

The Anahir is a group created by Emperor Alaric Bhaltair. They are an elite and secretive group of mages that answer to the Emperor. They are trained to be able to do whatever mission they are needed for. Their jobs vary from spying and assassination to things like guarding particularly important or secretive dealings. No one knows exactly what the Anahir training entails, but is rigorous and most potential candidates are disregarded after just a few weeks. The exact length of training is unknown, but the full training time is most likely years long.

Composition

Manpower

Due to their extreme secrecy, the exact numbers of the Anahir are unknown. Given the rigor of their training, as well as their short existence, most guess there are only around a thousand or so members.

Weaponry

Though their primary weapon is Arc Magic, they are known to carry around daggers and occasionally swords. These are usually kept hidden and the majority of the time the Anahir use magic to avoid physical fights entirely.

Structure

Because of their secrecy, this is again, unknown. Since there seem to be no ranks among the Anahir, and they often go on assignments solo or in small groups, it is assumed that they all answer directly to the Emperor of another high ranking official. For group missions, it is likely one of them is assigned as the leader.

Training

Very little is known about their training process. Those who didn't make it through talk about the first parts of the training focusing on rigorous exercise and drawing arcs while in high-stress situations. Little else is known about the Anahir training, as only those who failed will talk about it.

Logistics

Recruitment

Most recruits are taken from schools. Those who possess an aptitude for Arc Magic are chosen. Few of the many people who are chosen ever make it through the training.
